I was burnt in 1987. But some burn marks are on my face i.e. on my right chick. Is it possible to do plastic surgery?

Hello, As per your query what we understood is that you have a Third Degree type of burn marks - Third-degree burns are the most severe. They damage the top two layers of skin but may also damage the bones and tendons and can affect nerve endings. People with third-degree burns may also notice their skin turns white or black. These types of burns can take a long time to heal and are likely to produce a scar.

Treatment for Third Degree burn include:

  1. Compression garments: They are tight items of clothing that support the affected area. This pressure will allow the skin to recover. A person may have to wear a compression garment all day for a few months to give the burn time to heal.
  2. Skin grafts: A skin graft involves a surgeon taking healthy skin from another area of the body, or from a donor, and using this to cover the area of burned skin.
  3. Surgery: If a burn causes parts of the skin to stick together (called contractures), a person may require surgery to release these and enable movement.
  4. Physical therapy: To encourage motion in areas of the body affected by contractures may also help.

So before opting for any treatment, we suggest you visit your nearest Plastic Surgeon and get the complete detail about the treatment. You can find them through our page - Plastic Surgeons in India. Hope this answer helps you.
